Stumpin' after the Tollgate Shoot
« on: February 12, 2012, 09:45:00 PM »
Had a real good time at the Tollgate Traditions shoot today.  So on the way home I took a little drive through the Klondike Forest in Amboy NY and did a little shooting in the snow.  Made for one heck of a good day!

I agree with wildgame.  We have a pretty worry free winter and it started snowing here friday afternoon.  I was in my bow shop and walked outside and it was really snowing good.  I stopped what I was doing and went straight in the house got on warmer clothes and grabbed my bow hopped the fence and was in the woods shooting away.  It was so peaceful.  I stayed til almost dark.  

Great pics ronp

The weather was a little snowy.  My coat was in my truck, Ron, which was real close by.  I just hopped out of the truck when I saw some stumps near the trail.  Then drove until I found another.  And another.

It is a Morrison ILF riser.  I got it from RonW last June and finally got some limbs recently.  

Ken, I look forward to shooting with you again.
